Candidate’s Signature Date Subscribed and solemnly declared before, Witness’s Signature Date Name: Dr. Wan Hasiah Binti Abdullah Designation: Professor and Supervisor ABSTRACT Nine gas fields and two coal fields of Bengal Basin, Bangladesh are studied in the current research based on geochemical, petrographical and petrophysical methods. The Surma Group of Bengal Basin is composed of the Bhuban and Boka Bil Formations. Both formations are composed of sandstones and shales interpreted to have been deposited in a deltaic to shallow-marine environment. This is the most important geological unit of the basin since the entire hydrocarbon accumulations so far discovered in Bangladesh is found within these sandstones. These two formations also contain shale intervals with important source rock potential. Together with coal and coaly samples, shales and sandstones of the Surma Group are the key subjects of the present study. Around 151 core samples of shale, sandstone and coal were investigated for this project. Shale and sandstone cores were chosen from ten wells of respective nine gas fields. Five bore holes of the Barapukuria and Dighipara Basins were selected for coal, carbargillite and mudstone sampling. All shale, coal and coaly samples are subjected to a Source Rock Analyzer (SRA). After SRA screening, different standard geochemical methods (e.g., PyGC, GC, GCMS, AAS, TG- DTA, EA and proximate analysis) were employed for the current study. Many shale and coal and coaly samples are examined with UV-facilitated microscope for maceral and vitrinite reflectance analyses. Poor to fair quality source rock potential is estimated for the studied Bhuban and Boka Bil shales. The organic matter found in both formations is thermally immature to early mature for hydrocarbon generation. The organic matters of the analyzed shales are derived from land plants of terrestrial environmental settings with minor contribution from marine sources. The siliciclastic sandstone samples are studied using both petrographic microscope, SEM and XRD for reservoir quality and diagenetic control analysis. Very good to excellent reservoir quality is evaluated by the present study. ii Together with petrography, petrophysical analysis is also carried out for one well (Rashidpur 4) and four potential hydrocarbon bearing zones are identified. The depositional environment and hydrocarbon generation potential is another focus of the present study, emphasizing the biomarker characteristics of Permian coals of the Barapukuria and Dighipara half-graben basins. In this project, organic facies distributions within the Permian succession are investigated focusing on coals, carbargillites and mudstones in the half-graben basins. The studied bituminous B rank coal consists dominantly of inertinite macerals followed by vitrinite and liptinite. The various facies models used commonly indicate forest swamps with mixed oxic-anoxic conditions under terrestrial settings with periodic flooding. Organic facies characteristics suggest that the coals are dominantly terrestrial with minor contributions from marine sources. The carbargillites correspond to a mixture of terrestrial and marine sources, whereby the mudstones being terrestrial with no marine influences. Very good hydrocarbon generation potential is estimated for the analyzed coal and coaly samples, ranging from fair to excellent. The carbargillites possess good potential for both oil and gas and followed by coals (mainly gas with minor oil) and mudstones (predominantly gas). Along with %Ro and Tmax, the presence of exsudatinite, fluorinite and solid bitumen suggests the analyzed coal and coaly samples have already expelled hydrocarbons. iii ABASTRAK (Bahasa Malaysia) Kajian terhadap sembilan lapangan gas and dua lapangan arang batu telah dijalankan menggunakan kaedah-kaedah geokimia, petrografi and petrofizik. Kumpulan Surma yang terletak di Lembangan Bengal terdiri daripada Formasi Bhuban and Formasi Boka Bil. Kedua-dua formasi ini terdiri daripada batu pasir dan batuan syal yang ditafsirkan telah dienapkan di persekitaran delta hingga ke laut cetek. Unit geologi ini adalah amat penting bagi lembangan ini berdasarkan jumlah himpunan hidrokarbon yang telah dijumpai. Kedua- dua formasi ini juga mengandungi beberapa ketebalan batuan syal yang amat penting berpotensi sebagai batuan punca bagi hidrokarbon tersebut. Kesemua sampel arang batu, sampel yang mengandungi arang batu, batuan syal dan batu pasir ini merupakan keutamaan bagi kajian ini. Lebih kurang 151 sampel teras bagi batuan syal, batu pasir dan arang batu telah diselidik bagi projek ini. Teras-teras bagi batuan syal dan batu pasir telah dipilih daripada sepuluh telaga daripada sembilan lapangan gas di kawasan tersebut. Lima lubang teras daripada Lembangan Barapukuria dan Lembangan Dighipara telah dipilih bagi persampelan arang batu, batuan berkarbon (carbargillites) dan batu lumpur. Kesemua sampel-sampel batuan syal, arang batu dan batuan yang mengandungi arang batu ini tertakluk kepada kaedah Analisis Batuan Sumber (SRA). Selepas analisis SRA dijalankan, beberapa kaedah geokimia standard seperti PyGC, GC, GCMS, AAS, TG-DTA, EA dan anggaran atau analisis mutlak dan sebagainya telah dijalankan bagi kajian ini. Beberapa sampel batuan syal dan arang batu telah diuji dengan mikroskop yang mempunyai UV untuk analisis maseral dan vitrinit reflectans. Keputusan ujian bagi syal Bhuban dan Boka Bil ini menunjukkan kualiti potensi arang batu yang lemah kepada baik. Bahan organik yang dijumpai di dalam kedua-dua formasi menunjukkan yang ianya tidak matang hingga ke tahap awal kematangan bagi penjanaan hidrokarbon. Bahan-bahan organik daripada batuan syal ini terhasil daripada tumbuhan daratan daripada persekitaran daratan dengan hanya sedikit sumbangan daripada sumber lautan. Sampel-sampel batu pasir silisiklastik iv dikaji menggunakan kaedah mikroskop petrografi, SEM dan XRD untuk menentukan kualiti takungan hidrokarbon dan kawalan diagenetik di mana hasil kajian menunjukkan kualiti takungan adalah sangat bagus hingga cemerlang. Bersama-sama dengan petrografi, analisis petrofizik juga dijalankan bagi telaga Rashidpur 4 dan empat zon lagi yang dikenalpasti mempunyai potensi menghasilkan hidrokarbon. Persekitaran enapan dan potensi penjanaan hidrokarbon juga merupakan tumpuan bagi kajian ini dengan penekanan pada ciri-ciri biomarker bagi arang batu Permian bagi Lembangan Barapukuria dan Lembangan separa-graben Dighipara. Di dalam projek ini, taburan fasies organik bagi batuan Permian telah diselidiki dengan keutamaan pada arang batu, batuan berkarbon (carbargillites) dan batu lumpur di kawasan lembangan separa- graben. Arang batu berbitumen kelas B yang telah dikaji mengandungi kebanyakannya adalah maseral inertinit diikuti oleh vitrinit dan liptinit. Kajian model fasies yang digunakan menunjukkan kebanyakannya adalah hutan paya bakau dengan campuran keadaan oksid-anoksid kawasan daratan dengan banjir berkala. Ciri-ciri fasies organik arang batu menunjukkan kebanyakannya adalah dari daratan dengan sedikit sumbangan daripada lautan. Batuan berkarbon (carbargillites) pula menunjukkan campuran punca daratan dan lautan manakala batu lumpur pula adalah daratan sahaja tanpa dipengaruhi lautan. Dianggarkan potensi penghasilan hidrokarbon bagi sampel arang batu adalah sangat baik manakala bagi sampel yang mengandungi arang batu adalah baik hingga cemerlang. Batuan berkarbon (carbargillites) mempunyai potensi minyak dan gas, diikuti arang batu kebanyakannya adalah berpotensi untuk gas dan sedikit minyak, manakala batu lumpur pula kebanyakannya adalah berpotensi untuk gas.

  • Reserve Estimation of Beani Bazar Gas Field, Bangladesh Using Wireline Log Data Farzana Yeasmin Nipa1*, G
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 9, Issue 3, March-2018 1681 ISSN 2229-5518 Reserve Estimation of Beani Bazar Gas Field, Bangladesh Using Wireline Log Data Farzana Yeasmin Nipa1*, G. M. Ariful Islam2 Abstract—Reserve estimation is very important part for determination of gas field’s lifetime which is known as production duration of gas fields. Beani bazar gas field very rich in condensate has been discovered in October 1982. Although drilling was completed in May 1981, but in view of economic considerations the production testing of two potential gas sands detected from well logs were not conducted with the expensive parker rig at that time. But at last production testing of Beani bazar well was carried out by the same rig in August- September 1982 and the presence of commercial gas deposit with high content of condensate is confirmed. Beani bazar gas field is located about 30 km which is at the east of Sylhet town and 15 km east of Kailastila gas field. Reserve estimation of Beani bazar gas field has been done by volumetric reserve estimation method. This method’s factors are estimated using wireline log data. In the preliminary reserve calculated earlier has shown in the total reserve of gas in place at 1.1 TCF and recoverable reserve at 0.8 TCF. According to estimation the total recoverable gas reserve comes at 0.243 TCF of which proven, probable and possible reserves are 0.098 TCF, 0.076 TCF and 0.069 TCF respectively. The recoverable condensate reserve is 3949000 BBLs. Index Terms: Beani Bazar Gas Field, Reserve Estimation, Volumetric Method, Recoverable Reserve, Wireline Log Data, Condensate, Gas.
